Technical details

The vulnerability is cleartext transmission of sensitive authentication identifiers over unencrypted HTTP in primary control endpoints (CWE-319). An attacker on the local network segment can sniff plaintext traffic to extract authentication IDs and use them in crafted HTTP requests to hijack sessions, terminate active sessions, or create denial-of-service conditions by blocking legitimate operator control units. The fix is available from the vendor.
